"Deed and state and consequences"

One of my long-term efforts in ministry is learning how to see the gospel in more than simply individualistic terms. Scot McKnight addresses that very issue in his recent blog post on sin and the Atonement. I haven't read enough of Scot's thoughts to know whether or not I agree with his atonement theory, but it's good to see him exploring the idea of sin as more than simply an individual problem.
